The Flip Side

One-of-a-kind, reversible .999 pure silver pendant. One side displays a 3mm lab-grown ruby while the opposite side is a pure, polished silver design. The sides have been mounted with four "legs" through which you can slide a delicate chain (included). When strung through two legs, the pendant hangs squarely; when strung around one leg, the pendant points create a more diamond shape. This is the most versatile little conversation piece I've ever made. It is small enough for very petite women to enjoy.

Egyptian Spiral and Bloodstone Bracelet in Sterling Silver

This handmade bracelet by DianaShyeJewelry features sterling silver Egyptian spirals and a teal colored bloodstone bead. It recalls the classic elegance of ancient Egypt because I made it with the same technique the ancient Egyptian used to make the jewelry royalty and nobility.

The spiral components are antiqued sterling silver wire, about 3/4" wide (2 cm) and the individual coils are about 3/8" (1 cm) in diameter. The focal point of the bracelet is a 20 mm flat coin bloodstone bead with a gleaming teal color and ruby colored flecks, for a regal look. The bracelet is 7.5" long (19 cm). The handcrafted clasp is invisible but easy to open and close.

I am such a chainmaille junkie; but there is nothing better than finding a maille artist that really adds style to her work! Using basic weaves, EyeCandyChainmaille has turned the ordinary into stunning!

Not only does Candy make stunning wearable art with metal, she has an eye for adding gems and pearls in such a way that adds drama and class to already amazing pieces.

On top of being an amazing designer, she has created a wonderful tutorial for her own version of the Persian Cross. Seems like a cool way to learn a new talent and end up with wearable art in the end.

Copper Crystals and Beaded Bracelet

Copper Crystals and Beaded Bracelet

Fruity Loops Whipped Cream Fluff

Made with skin softening butters, it's sure to capture your mind, body and soul. Fluffy, light and simply creamy, it's easy to think this came right out of a pastry shop.With the main components of Shea Butter, Turbindo Sugar, Babassu Oil and Jojoba Oil, your skin will truly thank you.

It take only the use of a small portion to give the greatest benefits. I like to scrub down my dry skin prior to entering the shower, so that none of the goodness is washed away before being used.

This is both vegan and paraben free! Though it does have a small amount of sugar added, it is NOT meant to be a scrub.

Lavender MicroEmbellished Sterling Chain

I wanted a different look for a chain to wear with my Cross. So I took a good quality cable chain and added some 3mm AAA lavender seed pearls and 2mm silver beads. Now the chain sparkles and shimmers on its own enhancing the pendant. It can also be worn alone or with other chains for the layered look.

While I can't promise it will fit through absolutely every pendant bail, the beads are tiny enough that it will fit through most.

La duchesse Necklace

This necklace will definitely make a statement. The featured pendant is big, bold and beautiful, and has been handcrafted with sterling silver in various wire gauges. The pendant stands almost 2" tall and is close to 1" wide (1.8" x 0.8"), and hangs on a beautiful sterling silver chain. The necklace features a beautiful faceted onyx bead that is complimented by sterling swirls, tumbled to a beautiful bright and shiny finish. The total length of the chain is about 20".Read more at handmadeartistsshop.com
